ITAT Delhi has held in the case of Smiti Golyan Vs. ITO that As per provisions of sec. 48 of the I.T. Act in case of acquisition of the property by way of gift or inheritance the cost of acquisition of the property will be the same as in the hands of the original owner/ transferor/donor.
Assessee is a private limited company engaged in the business of manufacturing of Casting. During the course of assessment proceedings AO noticed that Assessee has received cash loans on various days aggregating to Rs 8,89,000/- from Shri Ramusingh Badoria, the Director, of the Assessee.
The Tribunal was justified in taking the view that the assessee had continued to show the admitted liabilities in its balance sheet, the same could not be treated as cessation of liabilities. Merely because the liabilities were outstanding for last many years, it could not be inferred that the said liabilities has ceased to exist.
Where huge funds were available without any interest liability with assessee and there was no evidence to hold that borrowed money was utilized for purpose of advance to sister concerns, no disallowance of interest was warranted.
We find that CIT(A) while deleting the addition has noted that the Assessee was having sufficient interest free funds and therefore there was no justification for presuming that any part of interest bearing loan has been utilized for the purpose of making investments.
The assessee company is a builder and developer of residential and commercial projects. It was noted by the AO that the assessee company is a partner in several “partnership firms”. The AO had made a list of all those firms along with profit sharing ratio of the assessee in those firms.
Requirement of filing audit report alongwith return of income is procedural in nature and audit report filed at the assessment stage shall be construed as sufficient compliance of the same for claiming deduction u/s 80IB.
It is observed that the claim of the assessee for long term capital loss arising from sale of shares of was disallowed by the A.O. by treating the relevant transactions of purchase and sale of shares as a colourable device adopted by the assessee with an ultra motive to claim the long term capital loss.
The issue is as to whether the payment in question can be termed as commission paid for rendering services by the bank to the assessee for the recovery of the bill amount and so, whether TDS was deductible thereon u/s 194H and whether non-compliance thereof has rightly resulted
It is clear from the order of the CIT(A) that the assessee had commenced construction of the building within a period of three years from the date on which the property on the transfer of which capital gain arose.
